How does the use of digital technologies contribute to the issue of “designing perception” in interactive environment in the field of Digital Performance?
Moderator: Aylin Kalem
Speakers: Isabel Valverde, Ivani Santana, Emanuele Quinz
The debate will be concentrated on the corporeality of the audience/active participant in interactive installations and will also develop further into the corporeality of the performer in stage performances.Topics:- The issue of perception in interactivity- The relation of perception to corporeality- Alterations in the senses and the perception mechanism- Perception of the “self” and the “other”- Is it really possible to design the perception?- What are the problematic political issues in the design of perception?- How could the ones at the “Margins” be integrated in this process? How much is this crucial?

Working Group within IETM : Staging New Media (22 April 2006, ITU, Istanbul)
– why technology questions dramaturgy and changes the status of the audience
Moderator: Hilde Teuchies
Speakers: Aylin Kalem (Techne, Digital Performance Platform, Istanbul) and Eric Joris (Crew, Antwerp), Armando Menicacci (Anomos/Mediadanse)
Focus of the debate is the use of new technology as core-element/starting point in theatre and the impact on the creative process.Topics to be addressed : - Are interactive installations really interactive?- When does new technology in theatre become more than just a sophisticated tool for illustration?- The transformation of the audience from on-looker to ‘immersant' / user / protagonist- Interactivity vs narrativity- reality as a key dramatical component?- thematising the failures: ‘Je ne peux plus connecter'

OUT/IN OUT An interactive real-time installation


This installation is devised to blur the boundaries between outside and inside.
The wall of the gallery is freed from its materiality, it becomes transparent. A real-time video of the immediate outside is projected onto the wall and the real-time sound of the outside interferes with the image. The sound is transformed into image and thus, the idea of “hearing by seeing” is emphasized.

The spectators looking at the projected images are also projected on the outer wall of the building. The inside of the building is carried to the outside. Thus, the physical standings of outside and inside change place.


This installation was presented in .01, a new-media art exhibition called “tele-City” organized by Nomad and Siemens Art Gallery in Istanbul in November 2005
